WASIIlNGT0N April 27.-Senator Chan- 41cr today imuade a sOpplemental teport of the commIttee on privileges and elections on the Alabama election of 1894. Senator Chandler states that the new report Is made because time minority report Is not forthcomIng - comIng after Ohio lapse of forty-eight days. The cupplemental report then recItes the statement macho by Senator Allen of Nebraska - braska , in his speech in the senate on February - ruary 11 , 189 , charging that 34,000 fraudulent - ulent votes were cast for Oatec In the fifteen blaclc belt counties , which , beimig deducted , would overcome Oate& apparent majority and chow Ohio election of Iolb by about 7,000 majority. Tile report also claIms that a IColb legislature was ah In fact elected , "that in four black bolt counties two KoIb senators and seven KoIb representatives s'ere ciiosen , and In fourteen white counties four ICoib senators and twOmuty-fouir iCoPi reprcselitati'c Were chosen , but that in all thieso cases the democratic candidates were fraudulently declared elected , making an apparent - parent deiuiocratic majorIty of forty-five in Ohio legislature , Eliminating these frauds there vas , it is asrertecl , an actual populist anti republican msjorlty of twenty-nine In the legislature , making Senator Morgan's election invalid , Mr. Chandler , republican of New Ilamp- shire , presented a supplemental report conCernIng - CornIng alleged election francis In Alabama , anti tue naval appropriation bill was then taken up. The main features of the bIll are thtu Items for four seagoing coast line battleships - ships , designed to carry the hieavicy't armor and miiost powerful ordnance , to cost $3,750- 000 each ; three torpedo boats having a speed of thIrty knots , to cost $800,000 , and ton tor- ledO boats to cost $500,000. MORE MONEY FOR GUNS. Mr. Quay offered an amendment increasing the appropriatIon for reserve guns for aux- ihlary cruisers from $250.000 to $400,000 , Mr. German commented on thio delay in furnishing guns at the Washington navy yard. At one time the work had been much expedited , probably as a result of the war talk. But of late thu contractors had failed to furnish the jackets , etc. , for the guns and tills had occasioned delay , The senator doubted tim expediency of providing for a lot of new' guns and following It up 'with many new .hips , In vIew of the present condition - dition of the treasury , Mr. Stewart remarked that there was $280- 000,000 cash balance in the treasury. 'Yos , and considerable silver also , " said Mr. German. After further debate Mr. Quay's amend- meat was agreed to. Mr. Perkins , republican of California , moved an amendment approprIating $100,000 for a naval training school at Yerba fluena , Cal. He argued that American ships should be manned by Americans awJ that it was desirable to foster a iatriotic epirit. among American seamen. Mr. Gormnan made a vigorous opposition. 'Ho ' declared that this was the first step to- u'artl a project which aught. cost from one to five millions , and yet it was ( crought in 'without an estimate. lie said the appropriations - tions secured by time Pacific coast senators would long stand as an evidence of what can be secured throughi persotency. He ap- pculed to Mr. Perkins to withdraw tile amnerviment. The California senator agreed to have time appropriation cut to $50,000 , saying the liberal - eral poole of California would make up tlte' balance. Mr. Lodge , republican of Massa. ciiusotts , supported the amendment on the ground that with two great lines of coast there Is iteed of a Pacific traIning school similar to the one at Newport. Mr. Halo contended that naval training should ho on shipboard and not on land and MiS. Faulkner pointeul out that the proposed appropriation was premature , as another bhhi nov approved by the president called on the Navy department for plane ( oi thIs school. Mr. Perkins fiuially withdrew lila amend- macnt. macnt.CONCERNING CONCERNING ARMOR PLATES. Mr. Chandler offered an amendnuent mak- lag it unlawful after June 30 , 1897 , for naval officers to take service with concerns furnian- ing armor or other equIpment for the gnv- ornmont. Ho said tue practice of allowing retired naval officers on three-fourths pay to enter the servIce of contractoni dealing with the government was very obJoctionabe. These officers lied facilities for knowing what was going on at the Navy department anti it was Improper that service to the guverniuent and service to the contractors should r'jti to- gother. He said thorn wore several specific cases showing tlio objectionable character of thus service , but Ito refrained from meniton- lag thorn , a.s the Navy department lad sanctioned the service. Mr. Gray contended that it was unjust to reotrict time services of naval olilcora on tim retired list. There was no reason , said the senator , why an officer retired by a super- serviceable rettring board , anxious to inag- nify its own importance , should be redui'md to beggary by being denied him rlg'mt to enter upon private work , Some of the officers were retired for slight caueeA. Mr. Ifalo said the naval coitractors were constantly endeavoring to get an advantage over the government anti to make enormacins profits , and a naval officer wan titus Placed in thio embarrassment of serving the ccii- tractor , who was against the governinmont , and the government , whelm was agaInst tlto ccii- tractor. Mr , Alien , populist of Nebraslca , asked for Information as to the irrogularitios. It ' , 'as explained by Mr. Chandler and file. halo that tine ret'ult of Ohio Investigation l'ad not been made public , Mr. hale said , however , that no corruption had been shown agaIn9i naval officero.

ON TilE PI1ICE OF AI1MOIL Mr. German asked if the committee hail not succeeded in developinig anything more thin tue ituinor impropriety as to the retired oil- cers serving contractors , Mr , Chiantiler responded that tints was by no meatis nil that Ohio comnnuittee had cx- amined liuto. lie would say , however , that no Imputation against any high ofiicial of tine government was Involved. There had been sonlo diecloSures as to Ohio interest of naval officers In patents ilseul by the government and tim prolriL'ty of thilt , Interest was now tinnier consIderation , Tine largest question , hiowover , to which the comnuittee mad given its attention was the price of armor lilates. Mr. Gorninani went on to show thin maimer in which tIne armor contracts hind been placed in thio United States. Secretary Tracy had sought the Anierican manufacturers and had induced tiienn to put In plants capable of turnmlng out armor , and ac a result these American worko were developed , capable of furnieiming armor equal to any mache. As a means of catering foreign markets armor had been offered to Russia at less than it cost until large foreign contracts were secured. It gave prospect that we would ho able to compete s'ithn England In sending stool bonus abroad , Mr. Tiihnnami interjected the remark hint \s'hnenm the armor concerns said they were furnishing armor to flunsisia at a lose lie would not beilevo them. It hind bec.n developed in the committee invecttatlon thiat the original design WflS to pay sumcient for armor to pay for putting In tIne armor nlatits. Thus had been done and in. this way Ohio governi- mont had practically etabhisheci thi Beth- buena plant , although tue contractors owned it and were interested1 In getting time highest pOSshhht3 rates for armor. After further debafe" the bill was laid aside and at 5:15 ii. in. the. senate adjourned. NOltTlhlhtN i'.tCfFiC IS 'I'll RIO Soil ) lecree % 'lIl II , .

Special Master Alfred Carey wIll conuduct time sale amid arrange the preliminaries as rapidly as possible. All tue iutcrQst.h havt agreed tfh the iecreo. Tue matter was sott1et in tha United States circuit court this 'evening. The sale is to take place at West Superior , Wis. , at sinch timioo as shall be fixeii by Ohio special master. The Northern Pacific h-c'ad will be given ten days in which to pay the claims against it. but then-c Is miii expectationi that this ooiii be done. The property is to be solId In three parcels , for which separate bids are to be made , which must aggregate no less than $12,500,000. A stipulation in time Northern Pacific re- celvership nnmatter was agreed to hate tlmio afternoon anti signed by all the parties and approved by tine court. It in effect sanctionis all time payments that have ieen nuade by the receivers. The necessity of an accounting between the receivers of the twG courts is done away' with and their disposal or the moneys is not to be further inquired unto , beyond tijo usual inspection by Master Carey. The stipulatdomt states that , owing to tlio oxpectaiucy that a decree of sale is about to be made , it is desirable to avoid Ohio expense and difficulty attendant uponi a sop- oration of the funds so that all payments nuade and to be made are approved.
